Chapter 12 - Chapter11

I collapsed, tears flooding my eyes once more. 

An overwhelming wave of grief crashed through my soul, tearing at my very being. 

Leaning against the wall, I broke down, my sobs echoing in a void where no one could hear or understand my pain. 

In that moment, I wanted to rip Terry apart to avenge my mother. 

The love I once felt for him had twisted into a hatred so intense I could taste it. 

Yet here I was, as powerless in death as I had been in life. 

A mere ghost, drifting aimlessly between worlds, capable of nothing but sorrow. 

I longed to see my mother one last time, but my spirit remained inexplicably tethered to Terry. 

He suddenly crumpled to his knees before my lifeless body, his eyes a storm of regret and emotions I couldn't begin to decipher.
